Rosicky struck after only 72 seconds at White Hart Lane and it proved to be enough to secure all three points as the Gunners got their title challenge back on track following defeat against Stoke last time out in the Premier League.

Since taking charge of Arsenal in 1996, Wenger has witnessed some sensational strikes from the likes of Dennis Bergkamp, Thierry Henry, Robert Pires and Cesc Fabregas.

And as Wenger prepares to take charge of his 1,000 match as Arsenal boss at Chelsea, the Frenchman lauded Rosicky's sensational strike as one of the best.

“It will go in my collection of great goals”

"It will go in my collection of great goals," he said.

"I told Tomas that because first of all he's not a typical goalscorer and he surprised everybody.

"He had not even time to realise what he was doing and it was in the back of the net. It was an unbelievable goal."

Wenger added: "I don't know. My memory is not big enough to collect just goals but it's one of the top goals that we've scored this season."
